Internet of Things using Augmented Reality in Unity IoTAR

In this Lecture we will be setting up our Particle Photon using the iOS or Android App Via Wifi. We will spend time getting it connected to our Wifi Network as well build a Web Controlled LED.

In this lecture we are going to Download and Install both Unity and Vuforia SDK's for Augmented Reality.

If you experience an issues with Vuforia, then check this lecture for possible solutions.

Create an Augmented Reality Cube which is the Hello World of Augmented Reality.

A Contribution from Prashanth (Andy) Menon on troublefree Unity-Vuforia Installation on Windows 10:

This lecture answers some of the common issues regarding Vuforia.

• In this lecture I answer where to find the images used in this course for the IOTAR Database
• How to solve the blank texture issue in vuforia

This video shows you how to output temperature, humidity, light and time data from a microcontroller such as the Particle Photon and send that data to the cloud. From the Cloud we retrieve it though JSON. Once
 received we can then augment the web cam feed in Unity with 3D buttons on canvas within the User Interface. Using Vuforia we are able to display out sensor readings in AR as shown in the video.

Part 1

This video demonstrates the fusion of Augmented Reality with Internet of things, also known as IoTAR. The level of water within a plant is obtained using a particle photon. That data is sent to the cloud and retrieved using the Unity SDK using JSON script. The data is then visualized in Augmented Reality using the Vuforia Asset package.

That data is sent to the cloud and retrieved using the Unity SDK using JSON script. The data is then visualized in Augmented Reality using the Vuforia Asset package.

Light Controlled Camp Fire in Augmented Reality using Light Dependent Resistor IOTAR Showcase.

This video demonstrates how you can use a light dependent resistor or LDR to control the light intensity of a flame in Unity SDK. Light is read through the Particle Photon device to the cloud and then gets sent to
UNITY via JSON. That data enters a few scripts after calibration and varies the light level of the camp fire in AR.

A review or rating will be greatly appreciated. If you have any problems please contact me so we can sort it out together. :)

This is a lecture showing how you can 3D measure thing in Augmented Reality. This video uses Unity SDK along with Vuforia to detect two markers. The vectors from these markers are obtained and thus through

the magic of math, the displacement or projected 3D distance onto the x, y and z axis with respect to the target vectors. This is a great application if you would want to develop an app that can measure 3D distance in AR, just by placing objects in the scene to get relative distance. The only thing left to do is calibrate the distance to real world coordinates. This video uses multi marker target detection in Vuforia.

Real-Time Wireless Augmented Heart Rate Showcase using Vuforia and Unity SDK.

This video shows my actual heart rate displayed in Augmented Reality. My heart rate is measured in real time using the Particle Photo SDK. The data is wirelessly updated through the cloud and retrieved in Unity SDK. The heart rate is overlayed on a marker on my torso along with a 3d model of a heart and skeleton. A green blip also beats according to the heart rate.

Application of this is for medical use to monitor patients heart rate by looking at them instead of a monitor. It would make it more intuitive for newly trained nursing staff.

This video shows how a Particle Photon Internet of Things (IoT) device collects temperature data from a simple Temperature Probe and publishes the variable to the cloud. Once in the cloud Unity retrieves the variable using JSON utility and then 3D fun begins. The temperature data is represented in 3 ways:

1)In color on a 3D model of a Mug: Red is hot and Blue is cold.
2)Numerical text that shows the Temperature.
3)Graphically on a plot

This video shows a Force Sensitive Resistor (FSR) displayed values as function of percentage. Data, using Arduino Code on the Particle Photon, is sent to the Cloud where the Force variable is pulled into Unity SDK
and displayed on an Augmented Reality Gauge. This demonstrations Internet of thing Augmented Reality of IoTAR. We use Vuforia and Unity for this project.
